On a side note: please do suggest if you guys find these useful and if any more info should be added to these Pre-Match and Ref Appointments etc. ... I aim to start these threads as Ref Appointments while other games are pending ahead (like Marseille one this time) and then perhaps rename these to Pre-Match Threads and add the poll after the next game is done, as even though they start with Refs discussion, they all inevitably turn into Pre-Match discussions anyway.
EDIT: Ooops, just seen the other Pre-Match thread already going (how come that before the other game? because I have been told off for that in the past) ... anyway, mods, please merge this with that one I guess.
